Forecasts

Connoisseur (9/4), Papa C (5/1), Ralph The Rascal (7/1), Release Me (7/1), Pongola (8/1), Shoefella (8/1), Future Of Energy (9/1), Canford Ice (10/1), Avro Prince (12/1), Jazz Festival (14/1), Mount Meru (40/1), Red Magician (66/1)

SHOEFELLA was slightly disappointing when favourite last time out, but is worth keeping onside. Release Me could be the sternest threat, while Jazz Festival is a solid place option.
